- Male - 5'8" - CW: ~160lbs - GW: N/A
- Current calorie intake: 1500-1800 (would like to stay closer to 1500)
I don't have a goal weight because I think being close to 160 is good for me, I'm just trying to replace a little fat with muscle and drop a couple percentage points in body fat (I'm around 10-11% but still have a pot belly/dad bod because all my fat seems to go to my stomach). I have an inconsistent workout schedule because I use a friend's apt. complex's gym and they only allow 2 at a time due to covid and I don't live there so I can't get caught (also sometimes like 4 people will walk in and start working out, ignoring the sign, and I'll leave because it's a small-ass room and I'm not risking it).
Last week I decided to start calorie counting and have been doing ~400 calories for breakfast (a mix of either oatmeal, fruit, and/or protein bar) and ~500-600 calorie lunches and dinners (~4-5oz chicken breast, 1 cup steamed broccoli, and 1 cup boiled carrots, all with a little salt/pepper, along with ~100 calories of unsweetened applesauce or sugar free pudding for dessert).
However I would like some variety and not have to prep meals every 2-3 days. Here's some things I DON'T like, so any suggestions that don't include these would be great:
- Onion
- Mushroom
- Sushi
- Mayonnaise-related sauces
- Blueberries/Raspberries
- Celery
- Kale
- I might add more as the suggestions roll in.
Also keep it low-carb because bread/rice e.t.c..... obviously has high calories. Thanks!
